Latest nvidia drivers

Hello Yesterday, I installed the latest drivers from nvidia (1251), got the SuSE RPM's of their site, and an hour or 2 later, I was up and running... But when I log into X, log out, and try to go to a text console, by screen goes either blank of gets strange colors on it. I can't do anything but go back to X and reboot. I heard people on the list having this problem in the past, but I thought this was fixed from the 1.0 version? Any other victims? Or anyone know a fix...
